The 20 Most Memorable Moments From Campaign 2010



John Hawkins

November 4, 2010

17) John McCain -- Border Warrior: How seriously did John McCain take J.D. Hayworth's primary challenge? So seriously that...

5) The Tea Party vs. The Establishment: The Tea Party went head-to-head with the establishment Republicans in a number of races and this year and this time around, the conservative grassroots had the horsepower to prevail. Rand Paul beat Trey Greyson. Mike Lee knocked off Robert Bennet. Marco Rubio beat Charlie Crist. Joe Miller beat Lisa Murkowski in the primary, although it looks like she's going to win in the general election. Christine O'Donnell defeated Mike Castle. Carl Paladino defeated Rick Lazio. Ken Buck knocked off Jane Norton. Sharron Angle defeated Sue Lowden. Arlen Specter left the party out of fear he'd lose to Pat Toomey. Trey Gowdy crushed Bob Inglis. This cycle, like no other before it, sent a message to Republican incumbents: It doesn't matter who you are or how long you've been in D.C. -- you can be beaten in a primary.

2) Palin's Revenge: The Year Of The Republican Woman: The Democrats mocked Sarah Palin from the moment she came on the scene. They pronounced her finished when she quit as governor of Alaska...yet, who was the single biggest force in the entire 2010 election cycle? Sarah Palin. She raised massive amounts of money, her endorsements swung primaries, and she did more to promote women candidates than anyone ever has before.

I vote for the RNC and NRCC sabotaging CONSERVATIVE repukelican’t candidates.

I vote for the way that the RNC is treating Joe Miller their own candidate who is embroiled in a very close and bitter battle where he certainly has a way and fair chance to win.

I vote for the ZERO “help” that the so called repukelican’t partee has given their own candidate because he is a CONSERVATIVE and they want the “write in” bug eyed liar to “win”.

I vote for how it was repukelican’ts who cost the election of a couple of repukelican’t conservative candidates.

IF the establishment repukelican’t partee does not get it, and they don’t.

THEY will pay, there is no real anger, YET.

This is a LONG TERM deal.

I can’t seem to figure out how to get to the list.
